- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15027795, 6 years agoReally, really, really bad performance on every website. If you like the speed of your browsing to go back to Dial Up ages, install this Extension.
Also, I don't understand why half of the options do not work. "Ignore-List", as you called it, does not work. On multiple occasions I try to add a domain, and it still does not ignore it and still makes it dark.
Also, why isn't there an option to enable this only on the website you are, and not everything on the web. If you want this extension on, you either have to turn it on for all, and then fiddle with that buggy not-working "ignore-list". Can't it be a "Whitelist", to be used by the extension, not an "Ignore List". This is the stupidest implementation of a feature I have ever seen. Why can't I choose the sites I want this enabled for, and I instead I have to choose for which I want it disabled. There are a lot of sites that have dark mode features built into them, and I have to go through every one of those, add them to the ignore list, and then find out that the ignore list does nothing. What a waste of precious time...
All in all, I slowed down my performance for weeks now because of this shoddy extension. There are other extensions that are simpler and faster and will do the same thing but will actually work without making your every day tasks a living hell.
I have actually been following this since a lot of time, and it has gotten worse now. The developer clearly likes to put on fancy features that boggle down your hardware resources, instead of making them work. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15016027, 6 years ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14976090, 6 years agoThis extension breaks more websites than it fixes. I didn't realize it was this extension that broke Twitch for me. Video stutters, freezing, etc. Many pictures won't load on websites with this on, either. Overall it needs more work/optimization.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14973436, 6 years agoIt does its job, which is to turn dark mode on for all websites. But it really slows down the browser too much.
As another user suggested, I'm using Midnight Lizard now which is more highly customizable and it doesn't slow the browser down as much as Dark Reader. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14746604, 6 years agoAbsolute crap, told it to not run on specific websites "Facebook.com" yet it would keep turning on and blocking content, do not download as it does not work properly and it blocks content...
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14781787, 6 years agoIf you are experiencing slow web page loading then this extension is the culprit.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14738971, 6 years agoSlows pages horribly. Often very slow to toggle dark mode.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14437147, 6 years agoSo painfully slow as to be unusable, and frequently becomes unresponsive.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14614639, 6 years agoExtremely poor. Veerrry slow. Completely useless. I've never seen such a slow running software. I do not think this developer has the talent for software programming.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14599744, 6 years agoremoved this add-on because I started getting Fake iPhone X for a $1 scam pop-ups in the Firefox browser.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 9905638, 6 years agoworks but too slow, 10 seconds to show a web page?!?!
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14573906, 6 years agoLet me get this out of the way: It's very well-designed. It does exactly what it says, and it does it in an intelligent way. It actually looks like an official dark mode on every site. The only problem is I can't use it effectively because it murders your CPU and nothing will load. And it's not like I'm on a Pentium 4 that can barely handle Firefox itself, I'm on a $200 hexa-core from 2 years ago running at 3.9 Ghz.
In short, it's well-done, but it's so poorly optimized it's virtually unusable. I would gladly go back to it if I could actually use it. - Rated 1 out of 5by ANU, 6 years agonice mode but sometime memory leak over 6gb of ram especially when u go to EA website
- Rated 1 out of 5by Eric Fortier, 6 years agoworks on some sites, but made gmail unusable and some sites stopped loading.
